Coast Guard Issues Urgent Maritime Advisory for Aurora Province
The Coast Guard Station (CGS) Aurora has issued an urgent advisory for vessels to prepare for potential tsunami effects following seismic events in Russia and Japan. The notice, designated as CGSAU-0725-05, was released today as part of the province's coordinated national response efforts.
Safety Protocols and Maritime Guidelines
The advisory outlines specific safety measures for different vessel locations:
- Vessels near shorelines must move away from coastal areas
- Ships in shallow waters should seek deeper waters
- Beached or docked vessels should secure their position
- Crew members are instructed to evacuate to higher ground
This maritime directive aligns with PHIVOLCS Tsunami Information No. 2 Advisory, triggered by an 8.7 magnitude earthquake near Kamchatka, Russia. The regional economic impact of such natural disasters often requires careful risk management protocols.
Expected Impact and Timing
According to the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center's wave modeling:
- Expected wave height: Below one meter
- Anticipated arrival time: Between 1:20 PM to 2:40 PM
- Affected areas: Coastal regions facing the Pacific Ocean
Local authorities continue to monitor the situation closely, maintaining communication with international maritime partners to ensure vessel safety across affected regions.
